Disha app saves woman from harassment at Tenali

Vijayawada: The Disha police have arrested a man after a woman complained through the Disha app about harassment in Tenali.

According to the police, a woman in the Tenali One Town Police Station area had taken a loan from Srinivasa Rao for her daughter's wedding expenses. After she repaid the debt with interest, Srinivasa Rao began harassing her by making rude phone calls.

He also threatened to expose call records of their previous conversations when she visited his office for the loan. Concerned about the escalating harassment, the woman warned him that she would report the matter to the police.

But Srinivasa Rao did not stop the harassment and sent morphed photos of the woman to her husband. Distressed by the situation, the woman used the SOS feature on the Disha app to seek help and guidance.

The Tenali One Town police responded swiftly, arriving at the woman's house within six minutes of the call. They collected the photos sent by Srinivasa Rao and gathered evidence of the debt settlement.

With all the necessary evidence, the police registered a case against Srinivasa Rao under sections 354 and 506 of the IPC, and Srinivasa Rao was arrested. The woman expressed her gratitude to the police for their immediate response and support in addressing the situation.
